Curiosity image shows stone cutting machine and exhaust pipe on Mars

NASA Curiosity rover image taken on Sol 1274, showing a surviving portion of some kind of an ancient stone cutting machine sticking out of a rock and another object what looks like a mechanical device, what appears to be a sort of exhaust pipe, on Mars.

Both objects appear to be in good condition, implying that it might have been left by a more recent ancient Martian civilization.
